12. You will be prompted with a QR code. Scan the QR code with the Microsoft App and follow the remaining prompts to finalize 2FA.

13. At the end of the process, you will be prompted with an application password. Take a copy of the password. If you use Outlook to read your Office 365 email, you will need to use this password to check email as it is separate from your two-factor authentication protected password.

We recommend that you use the Mobile Application on your phone (this requires the physical phone).
